hahahah

got all mine do

by **Richy59** Thu 22 Dec 2011 - 17:42

Alright, I guess it's all down to personal preference but this is whta I have set up on the CSRE so far:

Profile S_1 - used for TORA GT cars.
Sensitivity (SEN) - 570 -- Just noticed that you can turn this optionall the way down to 'off' which accroding to the manual uses the game presets to set the sensitivity, so I will try that out on FM4.
Force Feedback (FF) - 90
Shock Vibration (SHO) - 60
Drift Mode (DRI) - 1 -- This allows you to lessen the dampening of the wheel allowing for quicker lock to lock turns. It can also be set to off.
ABS Vibration (ABS) - 100
Linerarity (LIN) - 10 -- Supposed to make it easier and give you precision around the centre of a large steering angle (900 degrees) but I haven't really noticed it.
Dead Zone (DEA) - 10 -- Because the wheel is that strong any slight movement when the wheel is centred on a straight is deadly.
Spring Settings (SPR) - -1
Damper Setting (DPR) - -1 -- (I keep playing around with SPR and DRP, haven't quite got them figured out yet.
Auto Clutch - On -- You won't have this option yet on the CSR, but it shoudl be available as firmware soon as its a Beta on the CSRE.

Profile S_2 - Used for the N24 -- Pretty much the same but I lowered the steering angle for the thinner tyres to 220 degrees and but it onto no deadzone.

Gonna jump onto FM4 and try this 'off' setting on the sensitivity, see if that stops me having to tune the wheel depending on what car I am driving.

by **Richy59** Thu 22 Dec 2011 - 19:14

Right Duncan, turn the SEN to off and use Normal steering. It's pretty much perfect like that. I'll still be using the huge amount of settings to get things right in otehr games and if I need a tighter steering angle, but at the off position its well suited to Forza.

HI new to the forums,i use a microsoft wheel,but have done the bearing mod,so have absolutly no free plat as well as much more force feedback,well worth the effort.Iam using this with a seat out of a BMW Msport,full leather,and fully reclinable. santa

How's the wheel going Duncan and Richy?
Thanks to the design of my table (rounded edge and stepped underside) the standard clamp doesn't quite hold the wheel still fore and aft. Not a massive issue but always slightly worried it's going to drop forward off the table edge.
The set up I've developed as a stopgap isn't ideal and it's more like driving a lorry but it's working for now.
Rennsport stand on it's way thankfully!
I think these wheels really do benefit from hard mounting. The FFB is brilliant and you certainly know it when you smack kerbs harder than you should.
It's REALLY going to take some getting used to.

by **CQR Rogue** Tue 27 Dec 2011 - 10:36

Yea its awsome wheel a lot of getting used to just waiting for some patch news regarding the clutch issues, and will be mounting to my desk later with some power tools Smile

Have a go at GT5 incredicable after the latest patch and wheel

My Fanatec CSR, Clubsport Pedals, and shifter set showed-up yesterday! Very Happy

Now I'm waiting on my first-ever sim rig, an rseat evo 3...white seat with a black frame. It's scheduled to ship on the 15th...and I'm already pacing the floor in anticipation. bounce
